Twilight Sparkle raised her hooves and put them together in the form of a picture frame.
"Perfect!" Twilight proclaimed.
"Is this really how ponies dress for an annual celebration of birth?" Princess Luna asked, sounding somewhat unsure.
"It's 'birthday party'. And, yes. It's not the Grand Galloping Gala; it's a more relaxed celebration." Twilight explained.
"If you say so, Twilight Sparkle. When do we leave?" Luna asked.
"Do you have your gift?" Twilight asked.
"Yes… such as it is. I have not met Derpy Hooves before, thus, I was unsure as to what gift I should choose." Luna said.
"I'm sure its fine. She's pretty easygoing. Oh, its time! Let's go!" Twilight said excitedly.
Some time later…

"Greetings, everypony! This is the second meeting of the Day Sharers group! We have a special topic today. It was Derpy Hooves birthday yesterday, so I think we should talk about that." Twarkle9 started off.
"Gotta give Pinky Pie some love for that party. That was sweet!" Dashitall's message appeared.
"Well, thanks Dashie! I think Derpy liked it too!" PinkyPartyPony messaged.
"I just wish that somepony had informed Derpy Hooves of my invitation to the party. Perhaps that could have headed off some confusion." MusicoftheNight posted.
"You mean when you stepped in and Derpy choked on the cake?" AppleJackAttack asked.
"…..Yes….. I think it helped that I resuscitated her as well."
"Speaking of need for resuscitation, it was Rainbow Dash's job to tell Derpy. Well, Dash?" Twarkle9 asked judgmentally.
"Oh… That was my job? Hehheh, my bad…"
"I had to step out during the present opening phase of the party to fix my mane after dunking for apples. What did Derpy get?" RareBeauty asked.
"Derpy got a new mailbag from Cheerilee, some apple fritters from Big Mac, a book on flying theory from Twilight and, um, a blanket from Princess Luna." Shutterfly read off a list she had made, hesitating when she came to Luna's unorthodox gift choice.
"I had no idea what to get…" MusicoftheNight lamented.
"I liked it." DerpyDerp, a newcomer to the conversation, added.
"Take into consideration that I haven't attended any birthday parties other than my own in millennia, and it doesn't sound quite so bad."
"It's really warm…" DerpyDerp typed, wrapped up in said blanket.
"I'm very glad you like it." MusicoftheNight replied.
"So, what's going on tomorrow?" Twarkle9 inquired of nopony in particular.
"Jack." Came the dry response from Dashitall.
"Yes?" Came PinkyPartyPony's response.
"Wha? No, Pinky, it means that nothing is happening! And why did you even respond to that name?"
"Nothing's happening with Jack?" PinkyPartyPony asked, confused.
"No! Jack is happening with Jack!" Dashitall retorted.
"I have a snail named Jack. He's the slowest…" Shutterfly commented.
"I GIVE UP!"
"Maybe they're twins…." PinkyPartyPony's thought popped up on the screen.
"Or cousins…" DerpyDerp suggested.
"I've lost my grip on this conversation." MusicoftheNight typed.
"Let's keep it together here, folks." Twarkle9 typed, in an attempt to corral the thread.
"I think you should let them keep "Jacking around" if they wish to! Hahahaha!" RareBeauty chimed in.
"Rarity, not you too!" Twarkle9 posted.
"Wow. That devolved pretty quickly…" SpiketheMagicDragon mentioned.
"Oh, hush, Spike." Twarkle9 messaged.
